Function of Traffic Sign Assist
Traffic Sign Assist detects traffic signs with the
multifunction camera (
/
page 211). It assists
you by displaying detected speed limits and over-
taking restrictions in the Instrument Display.
Observe the notes on driving systems and your
responsibility; you may otherwise fail to recognize
dangers (
/
page 211).
Since Traffic Sign Assist also uses the data stored
in the navigation system, it can update the display
in the following situations without detecting traffic
signs.
The camera also detects traffic signs with a
restriction indicated by an additional sign (e.g.
when wet). These are displayed only if a restric-
tion applies or if the system cannot clearly deter-
mine whether the restriction applies.
Warning when the maximum permissible speed is
exceeded
The system can warn you if you unintentionally
exceed the maximum permissible speed. To do
this, you can specify in the multimedia system by
how much the maximum permissible speed can
be exceeded before a warning is issued. You can
specify whether the warning is to be just a visual
warning or an acoustic one as well.

%
Vehicles with a standard Instrument Display: a
+ symbol next to a traffic sign in the Instru-
ment Display indicates that additional traffic
signs have been detected. These can also be
displayed in the media display and optionally
in the head-up display.
If Traffic Sign Assist cannot determine the maxi-
mum permissible speed (e.g. due to missing
signs), the following display appears in the Instru-
ment Display:
This is displayed continuously if the vehicle is in a
country where Traffic Sign Assist is not supported.
Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all countries.
